*'Sanctuary' for Us *

Lyda

Oh I know exactly who you are John. I am Lyda.

Holding no fear of Druitt even with knowing who he was she held her hand out to his in return. Those eyes of hers like their long dead friend Watson watched over them again.

A refreshing swim with the mermaid. So when did you pop in and don't worry thanks to Dr Abbyn I know all about the infamous 5.
 
Druitt

"Oh not very long ago, as for Infamy," he leaned to kiss the back of her hand softly "I would hardly call them infamous...I on the other hand." He catching a familiar glint in her eyes had him pause a moment but put these ideas aside.

"One wouldn't imagine Magnus would be pleased with using the mermaid's habitat as a pool." It was quite an entertaining idea, and John was far from trying to scold her it would sound more like praise.
 
Lyda

She smiled. He was charming enough perhaps that lured weaker minds. Yes... there was that look
... that pause that her eyes seemed to cause all of them. He was at least quicker to right his mind than the others and that was a comfort.

Well when one is invited by the inhabitant I highly doubt that Dr Magnus would have much argument. Seems my eyes even have her curious as well as the telepathic connectionthat some weird old guy insists on keeping with me after helping me locate all of this.
 
Magnus:
Helen Magnus' phone was vibrating like crazy in her back pocket. It was telling her she had several messages in her email in box. It even rang twice with Will's distinctive ring ( a song from his favourite band, Rush, of course) But, now wasn't the time to check her email. She had to know what was going on with Ashley. Was her daughter, a clone of her daughter...was she pregnant? But, how?

***********************************************************************
Tesla:
Nikola enjoyed watching Lyda walking away almost as much as he enjoyed having her near. She had a fantastic ass...but his mind stopped wandering when he recalled who's gaze he kept meeting every time he stared dreamily into her big dark brown eyes...Watson...This made Tesla shiver, a little shiver also came from the feel of the cool air hitting his skin as he exited the tank, standing naked in the dim lighting, looking around at his surroundings as his mind wandered over several things at once, as geniuses are apt to do.

Armory:
Jenny was finally feeling bold enough to venture outside the Sanctuary walls again. Perhaps it was all the residual Christmas spirit still hanging about the place, or the fact that her legs finally weren't wobbling and her core no longer humming the way it had been in the first 24 hours after her disturbing (yet tantalizing) encounter with Jack the Ripper himself, Montigue John Druitt. As angry as she was at him for taking advantage of her a strong part of her still hoped to see him again. She wanted one day to turn the tables, to see him writhing in ecstasy bordering on pain all because of her...It led her to walk the streets of Old City looking for something, anything, to distract herself. She never expected to find a pool hall nor a group of bikers to hustle. Then again...she also hadn't been expecting her suckers to turn into a flock of angry bird-like people.

Her winnings 'plucked' from her along with a borrowed leather jacket of Helen's, Jenny was the last thing Henry had been expecting to fall through the glass ceiling of the corner of his laboratory from a dizzying and quite terrifying height. She didn't even get a graceful dismount. Having crashed through a work-table covered in electronic components left her covered in abrasions and lacerations from both broken glass and sharp metal. Out of breath from screaming all the way home Jenny looked around herself and found she was more relieved not to actually be dead and to have been dropped back at the Sanctuary than at all worried about the loss of her ill-begotten winnings as she struggled to sit up in the midst of the rubble. "Oh...um, hi. Sorry about the mess. I'll clean it up as soon as...uh, as soon as...uh...what was I saying?" she asked before blacking out. The impact of the fall had finally made itself felt.
 
Kate

She had made it to Sally's tank only to find Tesla there naked but also clearly wet footsteps on the stairs to the platform. Carefully avoiding his clothes and Tesla she placed the food in the tank then before continuing on her way looked to Nikola.

How were you a le to swim in there last I recall she doesnt like you... though getting dressed would help since its nearly meal time and Declan was hoping to meet with everyone before hand.

She had her suspicions as to who got him in there Sally had been trying to figure out Lyda since she first picked up on the telepathic communication.
 
Even someone as bold and (pardon the wordplay) cocky as Nikola Tesla didn't like to be in the nude in a situation which wasn't appropriate to it, or in mixed company when sex and flirtation wasn't on the agenda, and with this Indian-Canadian street rat he felt hardly a ripple of sexual vibration at all and had truly disliked her manner from the moment he'd first met her.

This reminded him of his current state of undress and broke his reverie rather quickly as the sound of her high pitched sarcasm grated on his ears and he rooted around the pile of clothes he'd left there for his silk boxers. "In response to your question, no...I wasn't swimming alone with Seaweed Sally here because, you're correct, she doesn't normally like me in her tank. But she invited me to join a mutual friend who's just left to attend to something important. Now, any other elements of my biography and you'll have to just look it up. I am not keen on explaining every detail of my life to you simply because you have nothing better to entertain your tiny brain with while you feed the zoo animals their lunch."

He dressed quickly but still made sure to check his reflection in the glass and make sure his hair was just as he liked it before descending the staircase and breezing past Kate on his way to find out what the rest of the household was up to. "Where's Helen?" he asked absently, not caring if he got an answer or not.

"Med lab...but, Declan..." was the response he heard from behind him as he decided to make his way there.

He waved her protest away, "I don't answer to Declan. I answer to no one however if I decide to get involved in your piddly human matters I deal with the head honcho. First, I'll see what she's up to. If Declan wants me he can find me himself."

It was entertaining how snooty and rude he got when he got caught. She just laughed and signed to Sally confirming what she thought and learning that Nikola seemed to be hot for Lyda except her eyes held him at bay. Sally seemed puzzled by Lyda's eyes too Kate had no answers but told her Declan would explain his finding later. Kate then went to round up Declan and Lyda and try to get everyone together if she could. She knew that Henry and Isis were probably busy. It was really cool that he had someone and beyond psycho side Isis was really a pretty interesting friend.

Adam Worth

He sat back going over what his little helpers have gleaned from Lyda's mind as he has spoken to her mentally before... Helen was still hanging around with good old Nicky boy and no doubt Johnny boy as well. They were clearly attempting to find her lineage beyond doubt before helping and with how slow it was going old Nicky boy must be slipping. Once they started trying to rid her of the inhibitor then the fun would start. Helen would have to watch the child of Isis and James die just like she had let his Imogen die. Revenge on Watson was not possible but getting Helen and Isis was just as good. He made sure there was one way to save her available to Helen but he knew she either would not take it or might not think of it. Glancing to a timer and smirked... it was almost time to speak with young Lyda again. He wondered how her eyes were affecting them... that was a very lucky turn of events in the cabals genetics department. They had been so easy to manipulate unseen. A plan taking generations to achieve was finally falling into place and revenge would be his.
 
Magnus:
Helen Magnus' phone was vibrating like crazy in her back pocket. It was telling her she had several messages in her email in box. It even rang twice with Will's distinctive ring ( a song from his favourite band, Rush, of course) But, now wasn't the time to check her email. She had to know what was going on with Ashley. Was her daughter, a clone of her daughter...was she pregnant? But, how?

“Mum, Mum please help me. We need to … I need to know … and Roger can help me … help us.” She saw her mother’s concerned look and wondered if she should share what else she knew. Taking a deep breath she sat up “You really don’t know what you owe him do you?”

As she watched Magnus Ashley continued “Roger de Blythe told me things only you would know. He mentioned someone you never talk about, someone from your past and how you were devastated when she was murdered. Your friend Iris.” Ashley took a deep breath as she saw her mother’s reaction “He told me how he had taken cell samples from her dead body and how he had hoped one day to restore her to you as he restored me to you. Only he … only he can tell me if I’m pregnant or not … but I think maybe I am.”

Seeing her mother lost in thought Ashley played another card “And Mum, remember, he did rescue you when Titanic went down. And … he did destroy Melaven for us. I know it’s hard but … if you like I’ll find Nikola Tesla and pass on the message.”
 
"Ashley, you are apparently pregnant. There's a...a mature embryo right here." Magnus showed her on the screen without losing grip of the echo wand with the other hand. Her brow furrowed. ''Odd... how could it have grown so fast? Or, is it not the pizza boy's at all?...but when you were last sexually active before then it wasn't in this body, not technically. That was over two months ago...yes, you appear about nine weeks here...How could you have gotten pregnant from way back then? Tesla? But...that's not possible in a myriad of ways...And, from a vampire...How could you AND the embryo have both been cloned?'' she asked, thinking aloud, unaware of the panic rising in her daughter's face as she problem solved on her own. "We'll definitely need to call a meeting, Tesla and deBlythe included, if we can successfully resurrect him. As for Iris..." Helen sighed, biting back the sting of tears, ''...that was long ago and I don't care to revisit the pains and difficulties of those days.''
 
Helen pulled back the curtain in time to see the sickly pale face of Eamonn and the doors behind him sweeping open to reveal Nikola Tesla strolling in, his hair looking damp. "Helen, what's the medical emergency?" he asked innocently.

Helen turned, hand on her hip, facing one of her oldest friends and enemies in one package. "Welcome, Nikola. You're just in time to participate in a paternity test."

He laughed. "Helen, really...me? Have you forgotten what I am? Vampires are sterile. We procreate by changing the living, not creating new life from our own DNA."

''Yes, I'm aware of that. Clones are also supposed to be sterile but it seems we're facing a paradox. Ashley, this CLONE of Ashley, is pregnant and the embryo is nine weeks along. Tell me, Nikola, how long ago was it that you lost control and took advantage of my daughter's body to have a wild time with Meleven in here?''

Tesla swallowed a lump forming in his throat, letting his arm fall loosely as Helen raised his sleeve and prepared to take some of his blood for analysis. "That seems like about the same time, yes. I can see why you might be concerned. But, this isn't possible."

"No. It shouldn't be. Yet, here we are." said Magnus as she stuck Tesla's arm a bit more forcefully than necessary for the job. He winced and she narrowed her eyes, staring him down. "Pray this is just a misunderstanding." she warned.

He held her stare, letting her see the seriousness there in his, "...to every deity I can fathom." he swore honestly.

Kate

She found Declan in the hall and Lyda stepping off the elevator. She had changed and cleaned up from her swim and the still stunning kiss. She walked over to them. Declan nodded to her as she walked over to join them.

Your message said you had good news? Lyda stood there watching them. Kate must not have known Watson since her eyes do not seem to set her on edge. Declan nodded.

Indeed there is good news science has proven some suspicions as to your paternity Lyda. It is incredible from the file and all our blood work. Though I would prefer to present findings to everyone at once.

Kate laughed at that comment doubting that getting everyone together even for good news was next to impossible... Med lab... lets go Isis and Henry may need to be told later but everyone else is probably there.

Lyda smirked and started walking... lets go

The three of them headed to the Med bay.

Ashley found herself trembling as her mother reminded her of the sexual adventure she and Melaven enjoyed with Tesla. That thought had crossed her mind but she was a clone and Tesla a vampire, there was no way on earth that this could have happened. Then she almost felt her heart stop as an even more disturbing thought crossed her mind, one she sought to dismiss as she swung her legs round while her mother drew the curtains back revealing a very worried Eamon. Her fear, THAT fear was one she would keep to herself until or unless the worst possible scenario was happening. Then … what would she do?

Looking up she noticed the wet and worried look on Tesla’s face as her mother tore into him and she blushed with shame when Magnus reminded him of their rabid uncontrolled lust for each other’s bodies. “Nikola … “ She hesitated as she handed over a copy of de Blythe’s note “After he sacrificed his long life to save mine Roger left this note it says ‘When Tesla returns tell him to establish clone base RdB 1460. He’ll understand and know what to do’. As she gave it to him she said “You and he have so much in common. He can help me in … in this and help you in your research on vampires and your work.” Seeing her mother look concerned she addressed her “Mum … you told me you met Churchill. Do you remember what he used to say? I believe it was that he’d do a deal with the devil himself to defeat Hitler. I will work with Nikola to find the answer to this.” She smiled as she thought how she would also love to maybe even meet this Iris. It was obvious her mother regarded that as a closed chapter. What secret did it hold about her mother’s past? With luck she might find out.

Putting her arm through Tesla’s she said “Lead on Big Boy. We can help each other.”
 
Asteroth & Druitt

It was rather amusing how oblivious the vampire seemed to be to his presence as was the human who caught him in a rather compromising position. They hadn't noticed him so he decided to follow quietly adjusting his new 'attire' trying to get used to the constraints, it seemed that modern humans and even the vampires were a bit preoccupied with modesty.

He went unnoticed even to the point of standing in the door way as they spoke with Magnus the one he'd been looking for since his return but waited seeing this as a private matter. Standing with his back to the wall not really understanding what it was they spoke of beyond the girl being with child. Still it was beyond his reach he was still new to them his opinion would carry little weight.

"Well well look who's returned and looking more the part of a human." John hadn't expected an answer from this large reptillian.

"What do you want from me Demon?" His accent strong but his words clear and eloquent considering it had been mere days since he'd awakened in this new era.

Even John was surprised by this creature new found understanding of the english language "Nothing, merely paying a compliment." John had been looking for the others Lyda having left mid conversation had killed his interest in the oddly familiar woman. His penchant for finding people had led him here materializing infront of an unexpected face.

"So does it have a name?" John tempted fate with his mocking tone, in attempt to draw unwilling conversation from this imposing figure.

"Asteroth." He brushed the demons comments aside, it was an attempt at some kind of game the measured eyes the relaxed pose the arrogance hanging in his tone and the deathly aura that fluttered about the air around him.

Druitt "Well Aster, welcome to the 21st century." It was an empty greeting considering the attempts they had made on one another's lives, Asteroth holding such base aggression aside, his nature and history screamed for blood and violence, but heart and mind knowing better. Little did these two realize how much they held in common.
 
Lyda

She had actually moved to grab a hold of tall bald and gruesome as if it were second nature but Kate was a tad faster than she looked having pulled her away from doing that. Lyda thought about it its almost like it wasn't her reaching to drag Druitt along with them but some genetic memory that made it an almost instinctual action. What would he have done if Kate had not prevented her from connecting and dragging him along?

Jenny was finally feeling bold enough to venture outside the Sanctuary walls again. Perhaps it was all the residual Christmas spirit still hanging about the place, or the fact that her legs finally weren't wobbling and her core no longer humming the way it had been in the first 24 hours after her disturbing (yet tantalizing) encounter with Jack the Ripper himself, Montigue John Druitt.

Her winnings 'plucked' from her along with a borrowed leather jacket of Helen's, Jenny was the last thing Henry had been expecting to fall through the glass ceiling of the corner of his laboratory from a dizzying and quite terrifying height. She didn't even get a graceful dismount. Having crashed through a work-table covered in electronic components left her covered in abrasions and lacerations from both broken glass and sharp metal. Out of breath from screaming all the way home Jenny looked around herself and found she was more relieved not to actually be dead and to have been dropped back at the Sanctuary than at all worried about the loss of her ill-begotten winnings as she struggled to sit up in the midst of the rubble. "Oh...um, hi. Sorry about the mess. I'll clean it up as soon as...uh, as soon as...uh...what was I saying?" she asked before blacking out. The impact of the fall had finally made itself felt.

The Big Guy heard a crash and the breaking of glass coming from the technical area and was sure it was the Sanctuary staff drinking what was left of the Christmas drink. He had made a point of hiding the key to Helen Magnus’s wine cellar on his person to stop Tesla or anyone else from raiding it. All that was left for the general staff was what he had heard described as ‘gat’s piss’ but the younger members of the team would drink anything.

It was with surprise then that on entering the laboratory he saw Helen Magnus slumped on the floor with blood pouring from her head smothered in broken glass. Rushing forward he said “Mistress … What have you been up to?” Remembering that you never move an unconscious patient unless they are in immediate danger he moved over to the portable body scanner and switched it on. Only when he was satisfied that the victim’s spinal cord had been severed did he begin to help her by placing her in the recovery position. As he did he heard her stir “It’s ok Mistress, there does not seem to be any major damage.” Reaching up he got of bowl of warm water and mixed some disinfectant and water and dipped some cotton wool in it and began bathing the patient’s head wound. As she smarted back with pain the Big Guy realised it was not Helen he was dealing with but Jenny.

“I might have known” he said as he shook his head “you really need to be careful.” After bandaging the wounds he picked her up and took her to her room and laid her on the bed. “I’m tempted to lock you in here for your own safety but if you give me your word that you’ll rest I’ll ask nurse to call in and give you some pain killers. Deal?” Jenny nodded and Big Guy radioed to the medical room asking a nurse to call. “I’ll trust you for now” he said with a grunt “but ask Ashley, little girls who upset me get their bottoms smacked. Do we understand each other?” Again Jenny nodded as the nurse arrived and Big Guy left the patient in her charge.
 
Jenny Armory:

It was several hours later, bandaged, feeling a lot better, but a little loopy from pain medication and getting a bit stir crazy and bored....Jenny picked up a pair of scissors, went into the bathroom and decided she'd finally had enough of all of this heavy blonde mop Helen Magnus called hair. She cut it as short as she could stand before dressing and leaving her room to get a sandwich and find out what everyone else was up to.

As she entered the kitchen and saw Big Guy standing there he took a double-take and stared, slack jawed, at her new appearance and she smirked, reaching for a knife and a jar of mayonnaise. She shrugged and began to smear her bread, "I just wanted to ensure nobody mixes me up with Ms. Helen anymore. If people can't tell we're as different as night and day from one another by now they've got to be both blind and mentally defective."

He gave a nod but also reminded her she'd promised to stay in her room.

"I know, but I got hungry...and bored."

"Stay out of trouble, Jenny." Biggie warned.

"I will, I will." she said with a wince as he squeezed past her to leave and she was reminded of a painful set of wounds still healing on her back and shoulder. "Thanks." she called after him, not sarcastically, truly grateful for his earlier help and discretion...twice.

Tesla:

He rolled his eyes and asked, "Helen, come on...I have to do this?" and Helen nodded.

"Nikola, Ashley's right. If it could be the only way to bring some semblance of order to this chaios we need to get it done."

He looked distainfully at Ashley and took her hand off of his arm, placing on her human boyfriend's instead. "The poor kid looks like he's in shock. Ashley, you really do know how to pick em. Hey, Romeo...either follow along or go home. This is going to be a bit more complicated than a 30 minute or less pizza delivery, 'kay?"

Ashley and Helen glared at him and he had to chuckle at their resemblance for a second. "Alright, take me to your leader, Ashley." he begrudged, hoping for one more approving nod from Helen before going.
 
Kate and Declan

Walking into the lab area with Lyda they saw the others leaving the room where Helen sat. Declan knocked on the door facing...

Magnus... Got a moment?

His voice lighter and happier than it has been since he took on the genetics projects and his attempts to find a cure for Isis. And he was... actually smiling.

We have a bit of good news.

Kate stood there by Lyda watching Magnus and caught the almost worried look on her face and a brow raised but she waited to see what Magnus reaction to Declan would be first.

((Since I don't know when Archangel will be on or posting again I am going to jump Isis back towards the med lab))

Isis

This time she could feel the raging darkness and quickly left her room making her way as quickly as possible to the Max security med bay asking Biggie to let Henry know when he woke up so he would not worry so much. She neared the lab and crumbled against a wall for a moment hissing feeling who or whatever this thing was in her mind fighting to not let her go back into that room. She managed to make it into the med chamber that had become "hers" of late and slammed the door shut making sure the emergency lock would engage.

Lyda

She heard the door and glanced back behind them but could not see who was there or where they had gone. Dismissing it curious about Declan's findings about her for now.
 
Ashley Magnus

Ashley resented Tesla talking to her as though she were a child and scowled back at him as they made their way to the laboratory. “You may think Eamon is a kid and a joke but he knows how to please a lady in bed, not like some I could mention.” Seeing she had hit a target Ashley continued “When you had Melaven and me at your mercy all you thought about was yourself. Eamon was concerned for me and only spilt seed after he had satisfied me. You could learn from him.” By now they reached the Laboratory and after entering Ashley turned and locked the door. “Don’t worry” she teased I don’t want any more of your seed!”

Working together they set up the experiment described by Roger de Blythe as Clone Base Rdb1460. Ashley watched with awe as she saw the possible father of her child expertly move chemicals around and bombard them with a combination of cobalt, strontium and carbon enforced ionised radiation particles. As steam filled the large sealed chamber Ashley watched as a human shape took form. The vapour at first formed a jelly like liquid and then compacted into solid form which bore an exact likeness to de Blythe. Electric charges arced upwards as a radiant blue light filled the soma and the body coughed, spluttered and then fell to the floor.

A shot of oxygen filled the chest cavity and the creatures eyes opened and then immediately closed again before it lapsed into unconsciousness. Tesla and Ashley waited until all activity had died down before approaching the body and laying it on a hospital trolley. Tesla took a phial of chemicals and injected them into the creature’s left upper arm. As its eyes opened and it began to speak it was obvious that it was an exact naked replica of Roger de Blythe.

Roger de Blythe

“I’ve been watching from somewhere up there and wondered if you would ever let me back”. Looking at Ashley and Tesla he smirked “My … you’ve really done it haven’t you? Got yourself knocked up by one of Mum’s school friends! Very unwise!” Seeing Ashley blush and Tesla flush with anger he continued “But you have no idea what you’ve unleashed, neither of you have. The Cabal changed your DNA for ever Ashley and while you shared your body with Melaven something happened that no one, not even your mother could control. All the safeguards in the world could be overthrown by just one moment of madness and I fear that has happened!” Looking at Tesla he sighed “You’ll wish she’d slapped your face!”

Ashley Magnus

In shock Ashley grabbed a clinical suit and threw it at de Blythe “Get dressed and come with me to see Mum!”
 
Will
Will sat in his room for a long while wondering what Helen was doing. Was she ignoring him or just not clearly wanting to engage in a relationship with him? Work is always the relationship?
He shook his head to get out of his funk and headed down to the kitchen to get a drink and then headed over to the med bay. He saw Big Guy and asked "Hey what's been going on? I've been up in my room for a while ."


Henry
Henry fell asleep and woke up to find himself alone. He went looking for Big Guy and found will there with him.
"Hey man where's isis?"
 
Declan and Kate

Declan texted Will and Henry since Helen was busy with what appeared to be another situation with Ashley Tesla and whatever this talk of De Blythe is again. A simple text...

Good news but we need to talk. Helen is currently engaged in another matter so I am recruiting both of you. Meet me in the Library.

Declan quickly turned to Kate and Lyda... Ladies shall we...I believe we will move our meeting to the Library. Druitt you are more than welcome to come with us you have known Isis for quite some time as well as Watson and some insight on how to proceed with Isis in current darkened condition would be greatly appreciated on telling her some good news.

Lyda

Lyda looked at them and shrugged... Sure lets go oh clearly happy British man. She laughed the nerves that seemed to linger even when his mind was occupied on something other than Kate and her attraction to him tickled her senses and she found it strangely entertaining.
 
Henry and WIll
Both of thier phones beeped and Big Guy looked at them both quizzicly.
They said their goodbyes and headed to see declan.
 
Declan and Kate

Declan leaned back against the desk still reading over his findings and the Cabal's explanation of how they stabilized the embryo. It was too late for Watson to know he had a kid but her eyes were just like he was there watching over them or staring them down or whatever.

Kate sat back on the couch knowing the results but indulging Declan and him wanting to deal with those here at this sanctuary instead of just dropping this bombshell on a guest here.

Lyda

She stalked around the library studying what books They kept out for image in comparison to those hidden in plain sight smirking as her eyes sparkled as she studied each of the books.
 
Will and Henry

Will asked Henry if he knew what was going on. "I'm not sure buddy, Declan is always doing stuff like the doc, so it could be anything."
They walked along the halls of sanctuary and into Declan's office.
Kate was sitting causally there. Almost too casually will noticed.
 
Declan

Welcome Gentlemen Please have a seat... We have a bit of good news but since Magnus is busy tending to something with Nikola and Ashley I am deferring to you Will.

Handing them all copies of the final report and giving them a moment to read over it before continuing. Handing a copy as well to Druitt if he joined them.

Lyda my dear you are nothing short of a positive miracle from a fairly diabolical former thorn in our side. First of all you are confirmed as the daughter of James Watson and Isis. In fact due to what the Cabal had to do to stabilize you... you are phenomenally half and half. Your eyes a very clear proof of their stellar genetics ability.

He smiled to her as Lyda turned to face him... Geez those eyes.

Now Gentlemen how do we inform Isis of this in current situation? I would suggest you telling her Henry but Will you have been studying that dark side of her so how do we approach this?

Lyda

Torn from her studying her eyes surveying Will and Henry as they walked in and then being drawn into this meeting she read the file and with a raised brow she smirked releasing almost a chuckle at Declan talking about the Cabal and what they had done and then the confirmation came... She was the daughter of this currently tormented HEP Isis and the man she thought of as merely the mortal template for a literary giant... fascinating... yet... expected with they way they all treated her due to her eyes.

Perhaps whoever informs her should have known her the longest? Well other than Dr Magnus since she seems involved in another matter. I would like to be present when she is told though as well.
